Cuisine: American
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time: 10 minutes
Total Time: 25 minutes
Servings: 8
Ingredients
- 2 cups flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 2 teaspoons granulated sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup (1 stick) butter (cold)
- 2/3 cup buttermilk or whole milk
Here's how to make it:
- Sift together the flour, baking powder, sugar, cream of tartar and salt.
- Using a pastry blender or your fingers, cut in the butter until you get coarse crumbs.
- Pour in the milk and stir until a dough forms. Put the dough onto a floured surface. Knead until smooth.
- Roll the dough out using a rolling pin until it is about 1/2-inch thick. Use a biscuit cutter to cut out biscuits (you could also use a knife and cut into squares). Roll the scraps together and continue to cut out the biscuits. Put the biscuits onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. (Do not overwork the dough for the most tender biscuits.)
- Bake in a preheated 425-degree F oven for about 10 to 12 minutes or until golden brown. Store the biscuits in an airtight container and reheat in the microwave.
